Wellbeing beach clean

The Healthcare Group have teamed up with Guernsey Mind and The Clean Earth Trust to run a Wellbeing Beach Clean.

These gatherings are set to become a regular fixture, offering an uplifting way to connect with others while maintaining our beautiful environment.

Whether you’re feeling anxious, dealing with depression, navigating autism, struggling to venture outdoors, or simply eager to meet new friends, this is a fantastic opportunity to join like-minded individuals in a relaxed environment and do something wonderful for our local coastline.

The initiative is the inspired creation of Dr Laura Bell from the Healthcare Group. “The beach clean is truly a ‘green prescription’,” explained Dr Bell.

“It’s a win-win for our Island and your wellbeing. Having a sense of purpose, enjoying the great outdoors, and working alongside others are all proven to boost mental health and happiness. Our first beach clean is planned for Thursday 21st November, 1-2pm at Belle Grève. We’ll be meeting at the Half Way tram shed, with the painted puffins, and we invite anyone who is available to come along and join us – just make sure you wear appropriate clothing and the Clean Earth Trust will provide buckets and litter pickers.”
